😇 The Saints start 2026 with a big win at Workington in the Challenge Cup!
Hastings adds the two
WELSBYYY ⚡️
The Saints were under siege by our own line, but we kept turning Workington away. We get a tap 20m restart, Macdonald takes us close, fires off an offload to Robertson who passes to Jack to finish
Workington are putting the pressure on, a six-again and another new set by our line.
Desperate to get over.

Better from Workington, keeping Saints out this time but a Macdonald kick forces a GLDO.
Jackson with a fourth conversion.

🔵⚪️ 2-4 😇😇
Better from the Saints, Town held in their own 40m.
After giving the hosts the ball 20m out, Saints are then penalised for a high shot.
Workington call for the kicking tee and Jake Carter slots it over.
Great defence from the Red V keeps Workington in their own 40. The kick is collected by Cross, he and Welsby pass it out to the other wing but a pass is judged forward.
Hastings on the last just in the hosts’ half kicks high and the chase from Sailor is superb but the contest sees him knock it on.
Saints defend well, Workington finish with a kick to the left corner, but Welsby scoops it up well.
Saints kicked off and Workington are given an early penalty, so Town will attack in our half.
